Meade LS 6-Inch SC (f/10) Schmidt-Cassegrain Telescope


Meade LS 6-Inch SC (f/10) Schmidt-Cassegrain Telescope
  • LightSwitch Technology: The ETX-LS knows where it is in time and space even if you don't. Just flip the switch and be ready to explore the cosmos. Innovative technology is applied to make using the ETX-LS simple, easy and fun.
  • Astronomer Inside: Learn the secrets and details of the objects you observe while you are viewing them from the Astronomer Inside with both audio through the built-in speaker and video (if connected to a video monitor or TV). The Astronomer Inside will tell you about the planets, stars, etc.
  • The built-in ECLIPS CCD lets you capture images & display them in real-time or save them to an SD card, with no external computer needed. You can even connect & control another DSI CCD camera & view images on an external monitor or save the images to the SD card or an external computer.
  • AutoStar III - Total Control: The easy-to-use hand-held controller lets you select from a huge object database, with over 100,000 celestial objects. Just select an object and push the "GoTo" button and the telescope will automatically put your object in the eyepiece.

Aperture: 152.4mm(6-Inch). Focal Length: 1524mm. Meade’s revolutionary LS LightSwitch series of telescopes use advanced technologies like GPS, LNT and ECLIPS CCD imaging to do what no other consumer telescopes have done before: take all the hassle out of using a telescope. Simply flip the switch and the LS automatically aligns itself. Astronomer Inside then takes you on a guided multimedia tour of the best objects in your sky. The aluminum mount is lightweight and portable, yet has a rigid structure with precision worm-gear drives for the ultimate in tracking and pointing accuracy. All this combined with Meade’s Advanced Coma-Free or Schmidt-Cassegrain optical systems provide the stargazer with the most sophisticated, yet easiest to use telescope ever. AutoStar III — TOTAL CONTROL The easy-to-use hand-held controller lets you select from a huge object database, with over 100,000 celestial objects. Just select an object and push the “GoTo” button and the telescope will automatically put your object in the eyepiece. The AutoStar III also gives you complete control of the Astronomer Inside multimedia features only available from Meade.

Meade 12-Inch LX90-ACF (f/10) Advanced Coma-Free Telescope


Meade 12-Inch LX90-ACF (f/10) Advanced Coma-Free Telescope

Aperture: 12-Inch. Focal Length: 3048mm. Focal Ratio: f/10. UHTC Coatings, 1.25-Inch Diagonal Prism. LX90-ACF For the truly discerning astronomer who will not tolerate anything but the very best, there is Meade's Advanced Coma-Free (ACF) optical system. ACF takes all of the features of our SC models and then ups the ante. With it's technologically superior optical design, ACF gives a flatter, coma-free field of view with pinpoint images all the way to the edge of the field, rivaling Ritchey-Crétien performance at a fraction of the cost. ACF is the perfect solution for the serious astroimager or visual astronomer looking for observatory-class optics. GPS - LX90 can do more than track satellites. It talks to them as well. Turn it on and the built-in Sony GPS sensor immediately determines your precise date, time and location. AutoAlign then uses this info to align your scope for a tour of the most spectacular sights in the universe. EASY ALIGN –LX90s are smart scopes that know the night sky right out of the box. Easy Align picks two alignment stars for you and places them right in your viewfinder. Just center them to fine tune your alignment and the wonders of the universe are at your fingertips. OVERSIZED PRIMARY MIRROR – Only Meade manufactures their primary mirrors in diameters larger than their listed aperture (e.g. the diameter of the 8-Inch LX90’s primary mirror is actually 8.25-Inch).This additional 1/4-Inch yields a wider, fully illuminated field-of-view, and allows you to see the light other telescopes leave behind.
